Sometimes you have to go out of your way to get what you want. And by “out of the way,” I mean traveling 3,386 miles. Well, we wanted a 1992 Mitsubishi Pajero, and we flew to Houston, TX to buy it, and drove it back to Portland, OR.

Subaru’s cars have long been known for their AWD prowess, foul-weather capability, and storied rally racing history. However, more and more owners are taking these vehicles and transforming them into more capable off-roaders. Eric Green of Portland, Oregon is one of those people.

The Jeep Wrangler is a legend. That almost goes without saying. So when Jeep goes to redesign the Wrangler, they need to get it right. Behold, the all-new Jeep Wrangler JL. And while we haven’t driven a JL yet (stay tuned), we did get a chance to check out a fully equipped 2018 Wrangler JL…

This holds especially true with tires that I’ll take off road because there are so many performance variables. It’s not just wet/dry…

If you peruse Instagram or the many overlanding groups popping up on Facebook these days, they might lead you to believe that every time you camp or travel, you’ll be rewarded with the perfect forest backdrop, an amazing waterfall at your tent’s door, or picturesque mountains outside of your van’s tailgate—just the thing to photograph…

Step 1: Buy a Mitsubishi Delica. Step 3: Camp in it. Wait, what’s step 2? Step 2 requires actually coming up with some sort of semi-comfortable campervan setup.
